Chapter 216 We’ve Even Prepared Music For The Debut
Who?
The young Daoist priest looked over and threw out a golden beam of light without saying anything. Within the golden light was a short blade. It almost instantly cut through the seawater, leaped across the universe, and reached Li Changshou’s forehead!
At that moment, Li Changshou saw the ripples in the seawater and the universe that were produced when the short blade pierced through the golden light… Without giving him a chance to speak, the short blade landed on his head… “Where did the ant jump out from?”
The young Daoist priest snorted coldly. He looked at the figure that had been split into two and continued to activate the blood-colored pearl in his hand.
Before the young Daoist priest could retract his gaze, another figure flew out from the left sleeve of the person who had been split open. It was actually the middle-aged Daoist priest.
“Hold on!”
“Huh?”
The young Daoist priest frowned slightly. A golden ray of light shot out from his back and instantly severed the new figure.
The young Daoist priest said coldly, “Noisy.” The blood-colored pearl floated in front of him and he began to perform hand seals. The blood-colored pearl glowed continuously with a sanguine glow. He suddenly shouted, “Jin Chanzi (Golden Cicada)! How dare you!”
The young Daoist priest was stunned. He turned to look at the person who had shouted, and squinted. The Daoist who had been killed twice by him had already disappeared. At that moment, the same middle-aged man was still standing there.
Upon closer inspection, it seemed to be an incarnation…
Jin Chanzi frowned and stopped. There was a hint of vigilance in his eyes. He also stopped feeling contemptuous.
Those who knew him only called him Jin Chan.
Only the two Sect Masters would address him as Jin Chanzi.
Jin Chanzi said coldly, “Who are you?”
He finally spoke…
Li Changshou’s heart palpitated. Was the fat white monk so ruthless in the previous life? It was rare for him to fail a few times. This time, he met the Six-Winged Golden Cicada. He did not even ask and directly severed him!
Look, it’s always useful to bring extra paper effigies. I’m prepared, and I won’t lose out! Li Changshou sighed. What he wanted to do now was to stall for time. The slower he spoke, the better…
“It… doesn’t matter who I am.
Most importantly, what do you want to do?
Fellow Daoist, it was already extremely painful for the dragon race to fill the eye of the sea.
The eye of the sea is the world’s polluted spring. It contains the filth of the world’s living beings. It is filled with their bodies, and their essence souls are gradually being devoured…
Fellow Daoist, why don’t you let go of the remnant souls they left behind?” Jin Chanzi sneered and said calmly, “I thought you were quite capable. I didn’t expect you to only be here to teach me.” As they spoke, golden light flickered behind Jin Chanzi. The six short blades slowly floated into the air.
“This time, I will cut you into pieces. Let’s see what else you can do!”
Li Changshou’s thoughts raced through his mind. He snorted. “Jin Chanzi, I’ve been waiting for you here just to give you some pointers. I didn’t expect you to be so ignorant! I have hundreds of thousands of incarnations, so what if I cut you? It is a pity that you had to kowtow nine times in front of the spirit mountain platform. In the end, you had only obtained bones and fles.h.!.+ What a pity! What a joke!”
Jin Chanzi squinted slightly. He questioned, “What did you say?”
Li Changshou pursed his lips. He did not know what he was talking about. The only thing he felt was frustration…
I’ve already tried to stall as much time as I can. Why hasn’t Perfected Huang Long arrived yet? According to the speed at which Perfected Huang Long had brought me to the South Ocean previously, he should have already appeared here! Is he lost?
Or is it because he had not returned to the land of the dragon race for many years and had even…
Huh?
Li Changshou’s gaze quickly swept across the place. He could see the glow of restrictions at the bottom of the trench. The array below was extremely st.u.r.dy and there were indeed wisps of turbid auras. However, is the defense of the dragon race a little too weak?
Although it might be because the Dragon King had transferred the experts of the dragon race that were stationed there to the Dragon Palace. After thinking about it carefully, he realized that it was unreasonable and did not make any sense at all…
The old Dragon King is definitely not an ordinary person. How could he not tell the difference between the Sea Eye and the Crystal Palace?
“Why aren’t you saying anything?”
Jin Chanzi’s eyes were filled with killing intent.
Li Changshou suddenly smiled and made an inviting gesture. He said, “Forget it. I’m not in a hurry. You can finish your business first. Let’s have a chat.” The golden ray of light behind Jin Chanzi stopped s.h.i.+ning and stared at the middle-aged Daoist priest.
Li Changshou smiled. He was no longer as anxious as before.
Although he was not completely sure, he was still 90% confident.
This should be the fake sea eye that the dragon race had deliberately set up!
Li Changshou even urged, “Please!”
Jin Chanzi’s suspicion increased.
He had always been ruthless and decisive. Although he was confused because of the mysterious Daoist whom he had tried to kill twice but failed, he did not stop his actions. “Fellow Daoist, do you still want to trick me?” Jin Chanzi said coldly. “In that case, I will summon the remnant souls here in front of you and condense them into the demonic-resistances of the dragon race.
Let’s see what you can do about me, Fellow Daoist!”
Then, six golden short blades flew out from behind Jin Chanzi and circled around him rapidly, setting up a layer of defense. In the area surrounded by the short blades, the blood-colored pearl shone with rays of light and emitted a shrill sound of wind as Jin Chanzi continuously activated it…
In the seawater, a few afterimages flew in from the exit of the array formation. They turned into a sanguine glow and entered the pearl.
Afterwards… nothing happened afterwards. Jin Chanzi frowned at first, after which his frown grew deeper. A hint of confusion appeared on his handsome face. Why was there no image of thousands of dragon remnant souls? The disciples of the Saints on their side had calculated many times. As long as they reached the East Ocean Eye, they would be able to obtain the remnant souls of tens of thousands of dragons and transform into blood demons to attack the Dragon Palace!
That was also a warning to the dragon race. If they did not swallow his pride and succ.u.mb, the next time he would break the seal of the sea eye. However, those schemes seemed to be useless?!
Li Changshou sighed softly… Jin Chanzi turned around and scolded, “What the h.e.l.l are you doing!?!”
When Li Changshou saw that, he confirmed in his heart. With his hands behind his back, sparks flew around him.
“Am I playing tricks or are you hiding something?”
Jin Chanzi’s expression became even more serious. Just as he was about to continue speaking, Li Changshou’s body was suddenly engulfed by the True Samadhi Flames. He disappeared in the seawater almost instantly. All that was left was a wave of spiritual energy that kept surging in the surroundings. A voice transmission entered Jin Chanzi’s ears…
“Jin Chanzi, you still don’t know who you are. When you meet the person with three moles on his sole, you will understand who you are.”
Jin Chanzi pondered in shock.
He suddenly flew into a rage. Six golden rays of light shot out, but only cut off the wisp of ashes.
“Hmph! You’re pretending to be mysterious!”
Jin Chanzi shouted and looked down at the array formation below. There was hesitation in her eyes, but she did not break the seal.
However, the nonsense that Li Changshou had left behind just now was like a demonic voice that could not be erased from his heart.
When you meet the person with three moles on his sole… He said coldly, “Get lost!”
In the vast underwater array, the young Daoist priest shouted angrily and activated the pearl in his hand again. However, it was ineffective.
In fact, he had used too much Dharma powers and even summoned the remnant souls of some fish and prawns. He was so angry that he almost crushed the pearl… At the same time, in an inconspicuous small trench 15,000 away, Perfected Huang Long, who had arrived at that place for a while, was bending down and lowering his head. He was answering an old woman in front of him respectfully. A huge tripod slowly floated behind the old woman.
If one took a closer look, they would realize that there were still figures meditating at various places in the trenches. Most of them were dragon-headed Daoists who looked as if they had been petrified.
Major setback!
Beside the Great Daoist Master, Li Changshou opened his eyes. He could not help but cover his face with his hands and sigh softly.
There was a huge mistake in the intelligence. Just like the Western Sect, he was mistaken about the location of the Sea Eye!
Those who had a long life ahead of them would be careless.
I have to write a self-reflection letter when I go back. At most, I’ll find a reason to punish Ling’e and make her accompany me to write a few thousand copies of the new Steadiness Sutra…
On careful thought, he felt that the dragon race had probably hidden the true location of the sea eye a long time ago.
In that case, Li Changshou did not have to worry about that anymore. He could not underestimate the Dragon race. The Great Daoist Master smiled and said, “What happened?”
Li Changshou reported the matter of him disturbing Jin Chanzi in detail. The Great Daoist Master smiled and encouraged him. “There’s no need to be dejected over such a small matter. You have already done a thorough job. These are all confidential matters of the dragon race. It’s not something you can find out from asking around.”
Li Changshou frowned slightly and said in a low voice, “I invited Perfected Huang Long to protect the sea eye. Perfected Huang Long is also an old dragon of the dragon race. He should know the location of the East Ocean’s eye.Will this expose the location of the sea eye?”
Great Daoist Master Xuan Du pondered for a while and continued to make deductions with pinched fingers.
Once upon a time, in order to complete what his teacher had instructed him to do, the Great Daoist Master had racked his brains and thought about it. Later on, when his cultivation level was higher and his mystical abilities were stronger, he could sense the Heavenly Dao more clearly. Hence, he was used to using the method of deduction… “The Heavenly secret has appeared. The Sea Eye is fine.”
Li Changshou heaved a sigh of relief, but he felt a little worried.
He naturally understood the deduction technique. In order to prevent deductions and predictions, he had also made many arrangements. Now, there was even a Saint who helped him isolate the heavenly secrets.
I wonder if the Great Daoist Master has thought that since the heavenly secrets can be concealed, he can also be deceived. He can even be misled by the heavenly secrets…
He naturally could not say that out loud.
He had expected that the Great Daoist Master should have thought about that. The Sea Eye was temporarily fine. Li Changshou’s mental energy was focused on the chaotic battle around the Crystal Palace.
The wedding could only be paused now. After all, the enemy had already arrived at their doorstep. No matter how calm the dragon race was, they had to consider the emotions of the guests. At that moment, many guests were already rubbing their palms together and saying that they were going out to fight the enemy. However, the old Dragon King was still sitting steadily on Mount Tai and did not move. The few Turtle Prime Ministers kept talking and told everyone to calm down and that the insignificant small fries would be repelled. Li Changshou was constantly evaluating the various battles through the surveillance network formed by the paper effigies. It was not the time for the Heavenly Courts to attack him yet. The more chaotic the battle, the more he had to maintain his composure and a.n.a.lyze carefully.
The perfect timing was fleeting… A moment later, Great Daoist Master Xuan Du suddenly chuckled. He closed his eyes and focused. He raised his hand and pointed at the crystal mirror in front of him. The scene in front of him changed from a huge battle at the bottom of the ocean and a sea of seafood to a leisurely white cloud. The white cloud floated in the sky, and six old Daoists arrived together.
Li Changshou immediately recognized the hunchbacked old Daoist priest. He was the target of Master Zhao when the latter walked on the path of no return.
“Junior Brother Zhao has made his move.”
The Great Daoist Master Xuan Du spoke in a gentle voice. The blue sky and white clouds in the image suddenly dimmed. The expressions of the six disciples of the Western Sect, who were originally discussing the Dao, changed.
This kind of Dao runes…
This situation!
“Sea-Calming Divine Pearl!”
One of them shouted. The six of them stood up instantly and looked in one direction. The treasure light in their hands flickered. Two of them even broke out in cold sweat.
“It’s an ambus.h.!.+”
“Zhao Gongming! What else do you want?”
“The six of us are here today. How could we be afraid of you?!”
Li Changshou felt emotional when he heard the yelling that came from the crystal mirror…
This should be the Primordial World’s version of an audible screen… ahem, not this.
Master Zhao’s deterrence was evident!
“Oh?”
All of a sudden, they heard a greeting and looked towards the direction where they came from.
A crack appeared in the surrounding s.p.a.ce. A handsome and mighty head popped in. “Were you the ones who injured me?”
After saying that, Zhao Gongming’s body landed in the sealed universe. The way he fell was rather natural, literary, and comfortable…
After that, when he vomited blood, the curve of his lips, the pain on his face, and the lack of spirit in his eyes were also vivid. His image and pretense seemed realistic.
“Pfft… Ah, the six of you ganged up and bullied me! It will take me at least hundreds of thousands of years to recover from this injury! All of you, follow me to Green Touring Palace and we’ll look for my teacher to explain!” The six of them clenched their fists and veins popped out on their foreheads.
Beside Li Changshou’s main body, the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du was stunned for a moment when he saw that. Then, he reacted and laughed until he leaned forward. He almost lost his breath.
Li Changshou smiled and pondered.
The time was ripe. The battle in the Dragon Palace was nearing its climax. The dragon race suffered heavy casualties, but the other party was not having it easy either. The experts on both sides were either dead or injured. Furthermore, the place where the experts were fighting was already a distance away from the Dragon Palace. The experts of the Dragon race had done it on purpose so that they would not affect the Crystal Palace. The six disciples of the Saint were stopped by Master Zhao. If the Heavenly Courts did not appear, how long more would they have to stay there!?!
Hence, in the Dragon Palace’s main hall, Li Changshou’s paper effigy that was disguised as a young Qi Refinement cultivator, took out a jade talisman and crushed it gently in front of Elder Moon and the Jade Emperor. Following that, Li Changshou said, “Elder Moon, I’ll invite the two Golden Immortal generals to attack together later and wait for General Dongmu.” “Alright!” Elder Moon immediately nodded and agreed. At that moment, he did not panic at all, showing the calmness of an expert of the Heavenly Courts. After Li Changshou finished giving instructions, he immediately stood up and walked to the corner of the hall with a gaze in his eyes. He threw out a few paper effigies beside the sea maiden who was playing music.
The two paper effigies held their trumpets while another two paper effigies guarded the drums.
Li Changshou smiled and said, “Everyone, please follow the previous practice.”
The female sea musicians nodded slightly. The music suddenly became intense and nervous.
The loud trumpets sounded and the guests in the main hall were alarmed.
At this moment! In the sky above the surface of the sea, a silver-white pillar of light descended!
Before the beam of light was about to reach the surface of the sea, it split into beams of silver lights that filled the sky. One silver beam of light wrapped around a silver-armored Heavenly soldier and descended towards the Crystal Palace!
In the main hall of the Dragon Palace, the drums rumbled and the music was high-pitched. It was a perfect fusion with the dignified exclamation that came from outside. “According to His Majesty the Jade Emperor’s orders! I’m going to slay demons and protect the lives of the four seas! Heavenly Soldiers, Heavenly Generals, listen up! Kill all demons!”
The forty thousand Heavenly Courts’ elite troops roared in unison. Their voices traveled 50,000 kilometers and shook the mountains and rivers!
“There!”
